My Philosophy: MetzAir is a service company.
After safety, a satisfied customer is my top priority. Since my company
will live or die depending on my ability to build a good reputation, I focus on
providing first-class service at a fair price. Major service areas
are listed below:

Pilot Service / Aircraft Ferry / Delivery: Need
your airplane flown professionally and safely? Stranded by bad weather?
Need to get your airplane somewhere for service, or have it brought home after
maintenance? Let me take the worry away.
General rates and constraints are shown here, but each job is negotiated
individually.

Instruction: We offer flight instruction services
in your aircraft. Whether you need a flight review, a WINGS phase, some
advanced instruction in systems/avionics, or a checkout or transition training
to a new airplane, I can help. I offer VFR flight instruction in
single-engine airplanes, and ground instruction including instrument
instruction. I can also find a suitable CFI or CFII if you need training I
cannot provide. Rates are generally $50 per hour, but are negotiated
depending on circumstances.

Pre-Buy / Pre-Sell Pilot Evaluations: Don't be
unpleasantly surprised! Having a mechanic inspect your potential purchase or
sale is necessary, but generally ignores the avionics and autopilot, as well as
flying qualities. With the "gadgets" becoming an increasing percentage of
the aircraft value, a mechanical inspection alone is no longer sufficient.
So, before you buy or sell an aircraft, allow me to fly and evaluate it for you.
During an evaluation flight, all the aircraft systems are checked for
proper operation. The performance and fuel consumption are also checked
against book values. A comprehensive report is then provided to you.
Armed with this information, you'll be able to negotiate more effectively.
Billed hourly at $50.00 per hour, USD, with a four hour minimum, plus expenses.

Avionics Flight Testing: Many new gadgets,
particularly IFR GPS installations, require a flight test for approval.
Your radio shop may perform this test, or leave it for you to do. Trying
to figure out how to operate the new toy, while checking it's performance, AND
flying the aircraft can make the flight test a long, unpleasant experience.
We are proficient with nearly all of the GPS, radios, engine analyzers, 'spherics
devices, and other gadgets you would put in your airplane. Let us flight
test the new toy while you fly the airplane, and save yourself some aggravation
and time. Billed hourly at $50.00 per hour, USD, with a four hour minimum, plus
expenses.

Avionics Training & Consulting: IMC is not the
place to try and figure out how to fly a GPS approach, or how to couple your
autopilot to the ILS. But we all know that many of the manuals for these
devices leave a lot to be desired. We can help you get the most out of your
systems with training on the ground, and practice in the air. Thinking of
upgrading your panel? A few hours discussion can help you focus your
requirements and save you thousands of dollars. Billed hourly at $50.00 per
hour, USD, with a four hour minimum, plus expenses.

Flight Simulation:
I am an active participant in the Microsoft Flight Simulation community,
particularly in the area of using it as a training tool and simulating IFR
procedures correctly and to teach good Aeronautical Decision Making.
